Mercedes-Benz Aloha Classic
With the competition at the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Aloha Classic all concluded that means that Marino Gil (Goya Windsurfing) is officially the 2019 U20s Youth Wave World Champion.
Gil, who is still only 17, won both the events in the Canaries earlier in the season in Gran Canaria and Tenerife to put himself in a strong position heading into the Aloha Classic and his joint 5th place here was enough to seal him the U20 world crown ahead of Takuma Sugi (Tabou / GA Sails) and Takara Ishii (RRD / RRD Sails).
As well as winning the U20 world title, Gil also finishes the season ranked just outside the overall top 16 - 17th - and the future continues to look bright for the highly talented youngster.
The official prize giving will be held tomorrow evening at 6pm (GMT-10). Have a great weekend!
